Reaction of interest is: Ca + 2H2O ↔<span> Ca(OH)2 + H2

Answer 1:
</span><span>Number of moles of calcium = </span>\frac{\text{weight of Ca (g)}}{\text{Atomic Weight}}

Atomic weight of Ca = 40.078 g/mol

Therefore, Number of moles of calcium = \frac{\text{4.8}}{\text{40.078}}
                                                               = 0.1198.

Number of moles of Ca = 0.1198.
....................................................................................................................

Answer 2: 
Number of moles of water = \frac{\text{weight of H2O (g)}}{\text{Molecular Weight}}

Molecular weight of H2O = 18 g/mol

Therefore, Number of moles of water = \frac{\text{3.6}}{\text{18}}
                                                               = 0.2.

Number of moles of water = 0.2.
......................................................................................................................

Answer 3: 
Number of moles of water = 0.2
Number of moles of Ca = 0.1198

Here it can be seen that, Number of moles of water > Number of moles of Ca.
Hence, water is in excess. 
.........................................................................................................................

Answer 4: 
Number of moles of water that is in excess = 0.2 - 0.1198
                                                                     = 0.0802

We know that, 1 mole of water ≡ 18 g of water
Therefore, 0.0802 mole of water ≡ 1.4436 g of water.

Thus, 1.4436 g of water is excess in the experiment.

Which muscle of the quadriceps femoris originates on the highlighted structure?
DENIUS [597]
Because there is no indication of what's the highlighted structure I'm going to tell you where all the four muscles of the quadriceps femoris originate from.
The vastus lateralis originates on the greater trochanter and the lateral lip of linea aspera. The vastus intermedius originates on the lateral and anterior surfaces of the femur's body. The vastus medialis originates on the medial lip of the linea aspera and the intertrochanteric line. R<span>ectus femoris originates, </span>superior to the acetabulum, on <span>the ilium.</span>
